I guess though you could just buy the original Tron on Blu separately and buy the Tron Legacy on Blu that does not have the 3D version with it. I all in all though may end up getting the Ultimate Tron Experience edition as I really like the identity disc display and plus you get pretty much everything with it. I guess I could live with having a 3D copy of Tron Legacy even though it will be a very long time before I even think about buying a 3D HDTV. Who knows 3D Blu-ray may not live up to all its hype. I sure as hell don't see much hype for the 3D except maybe at theaters.

DVDActive doesn't have it, but a 2-disc Blu-ray is also being released the same day.

We recently release the TRON arcade game that we had made for Disney. It was complete and ready for deployment, but due to department heads not in sync, it was made again by another department who didn't know it existed! So we're putting it out there - enjoy before it gets yanked by a cease and desist!

I already pre-ordered on amazon, I think 70 bucks is a great deal for all that stuff, plus they have that cool pre order price guarantee, so I hope the price goes down, but if it doesn't I still think it's a good price

Also is that collectable case supposed to light up?

The original one is a hot item now. The original DVD especially. Amazon has it starting at around $70 and going up to over $150. The 20th anniversary DVD is a bit cheaper as you can get it used for under $40 and new up to $80. Not sure why, one would think it would be the opposite? The VHS even goes up to $70.

Good question bout the 3d bluray but I don't think it would work. I always wondered if u took a pair of real d glasses to a Dolby 3d theatre if they'd work. Anyone notice how the movie doesn't use to legacy in the title?

id probably get the 2 movie collection but wish they would keep the 3d seperate. not everyone has a 3d tv (and just wondering but would a 3d disc work on a regular blu ray but obviously just wouldnt be in 3d?) and honestly in a few years i think the 3d thing is going to die down. people probably wont want to watch it in 3d everytime they watch the movie or even after the first time. ill wait for holographic movies.

Can anyone clarify why there's the need for 2 separate BD's, one for the 3D and one for the 2D. Is it just a case of maintaining the highest quality for each?

I realise it's a different title but the UKBD of Piranha 3D managed to get both the 3D and 2D on the same disc. Was PQ compromised by having one layer per version or did my 2D only hardware just play what it could from the 3D version.

Better packaging then the UK!! Definitely will be picking up the 2 movie collection.

But the Blu-Ray 3D + Blu-Ray 2D + DVD + Digital Copy is just ridiculous. We don't want the digital copy!! Give us more bonus material instead. I hope there is a commentary or better yet, multiple commentaries.

I usually think that collectables are a waste (for an example the "Inception" briefcase), but this one looks like it'll be worth it. (Come on a disc that lights up, and it includes the original TRON!).

I would love that as well, and yes the original tron should be on the left seeing as it was the first. Who knows with a 3rd possibly happening, why waste money on one of these "first 2" sets anyway? It's like buying a 1-4 set of the HP movies or something. I bet when there is a trilogy that is when they will throw in the VHS and Laserdisc copies, along with the sountrack on cassette, cd, and as a download ticket. This makes me wonder why digital copies are so popular in disc form, why not offer a one-time download ticket from amazon or something?

Hmm. Assuming it isn't like $80 or something, I'll be hard pressed to pass up that Identity Disc set... especially if it lights up like that.

There's also going to be a regular 2D Blu-ray / DVD combo pack for Legacy, just like Disney is doing for Tangled. It's weird that neither of the two-movie sets say whether they include a DVD for the original TRON, which the individual BD release does. The picture for the CE seems to indicate that it won't, though.

If that's the case, and if the Identity Disc set is expensive, I'd have to ponder on whether to get the 2-disc release of TRON and the 4-disc version of Legacy, or just the 5-disc two-movie set (though I really don't like the cover for that one. The image is fine--and in fact I wish THAT was the cover for the 4-disc set--but I wish it was more like the Fantasia double feature, with both cover images and title for the old TRON on the left instead of the right.) Though it'll probably all come down to cost. I wonder how Disney will handle the Rewards coupons for these?

So we wont get a nice double movie set in DVD? Downloading once again especially seeing as even the VHS of the original goes for $80+ some places. I also hate the "TRON" with " the original classic" underneath it. We know it's TRON, we don't need the extra c**p under there, just slap the original TRON logo on there and nothing else. The other box art looks horrible as well. Even the identity disk has "tron legacy" on it, when it includes the original Tron movie. This all just seems like a huge waste of plastic. Bluray 3D movies come with 4 discs in there, all of the same damn movie just because we need "bluray 3D for the living room", then "bluray for whatever else has a bluray player", then "DVD for the kids room and for on the go in the car", then "digital copy for your ipod and other portable digital devices!". I laughed so hard at that promo because it just seemed to go on and on justifying the same movie jammed in there 4 times.

Interesting. I wonder what new material, if any, will be released for the original Tron? I still have the 2 disc collectors edition of Tron from years back, that was packed full of stuff, wonder if any of that will be ported over, given new transfers, or will have anything new added to it.

Not sure what package i would get, I just hope the original isn't given the shaft.

EDIT: I say this because usually Target has the 3D combo packs for $29.99 and with the Disney coupon it's usually about $23. So I imagine the disc packaging is like 4 times as much as that.

EDIT 2: Sorry to comment again, but I'm just in love with this movie. I usually side with the critics, but this was a major exception. If I can see this movie a billion times in IMAX 3D, I'd take the opportunity! Imagine how it'll be seeing Tron: Legacy in Blu-ray 3D and its predecessor "Tron" in glorious HD

OMG! THAT'S ANOTHER MOVIE I MISSED OUT ON!!! Just curious, are Disney going to only DVD releases and 3D + 2D Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital Copy Combo Packs. They need to have at least a regular combo pack where it just shows the Blu-Ray and the DVD together without the digital copy and/or either the 3D Blu-Ray.
